Figure F36. Site 1116 profiles of (A) the complete porosity data set and (B) the porosity distribution without the carbonate-cemented samples. Superposed is a least-squares exponential curve using the data shown ( = porosity; z = depth). The estimated thickness of the removed section is ~960 m. Note that a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.3 indicates that the quality of the least-squares regression is poor and that the erosion estimate is preliminary because it is based solely on data from Site 1116.
